Definitions
- the invention relates to an arrangement for managing a memory between a communication controller and a host processor of a network node in a network, and a method suitable for this.
- a network node is essentially formed by a control device.
- This control unit contains at least one transceiver, by means of which physical signals can be received from the bus or sent to the bus. Sending and receiving can take place in a single component or separate components (receiver and transmitter) exist for sending and receiving.
- the transceiver is connected to a communication controller which, among other things, extracts the data content from the received messages or converts data to be sent into messages in accordance with the protocol.
- the extracted data or the data to be sent are stored in a memory block which the communication controller can access.
- the control device comprises a host processor, which can also access the memory block.
- This host processor is then connected, for example, to sensors and / or actuators which are assigned to the control device.
- the host processor carries out the actual data evaluation and calculates from the received data control signals for its actuators and / or, if necessary, generates data for other network nodes to be transmitted in connection with its sensor data.
- the memory block arranged between the host processor and the communication controller can be designed as a dual-ported RAM.
- the memory block consists of buffers, with some bus systems having a fixed assignment of identifiable or network nodes and buffers.
- One such bus system is FlexRay, for example.
- FlexRay has a static part and a dynamic part, whereby the ratio can be set differently, so that in extreme cases a purely dynamic or purely static transmission takes place.
- the static part is divided into frames or slots, with a frame or slot being permanently assigned to certain identifiers.
- a FlexRay requirement is that the frames or slots in the static part must all be the same size.
- the payload i.e. the user data size in the FlexRay protocol, is currently set to a maximum of 254 bytes / frame. Accordingly, a buffer with 254 bytes of storage capacity must be kept for each ID, regardless of whether these are also used. Since the dual-ported RAM is relatively expensive, this is a not inconsiderable problem.
- the invention is therefore based on the technical problem of creating an arrangement and a method for memory management by means of which the relationship between payload and buffer costs is improved.
- control data are stored in the buffers assigned to the identifiers, which contain at least one reference to the payload associated with the identifier, the associated payload being stored in the associated buffer and / or in one or more other buffers and / or in a central memory module are.
- the basic principle of the invention is therefore to manage the available storage space more effectively despite the fixed allocation. This can be used to reduce the buffers with the same payload or to increase the transferable payload with the same buffer size. This is particularly interesting because if the payload changes, the existing buffer sizes can continue to be used by the memory management. In addition to cost savings, the use will also be more flexible.
- the memory size of all buffers is the same size.
- the buffers of the identifiers of the static part are chosen larger than the buffers of the identifiers of the dynamic part.
- the memory size of the buffers is limited to the control data, with all useful data being stored in at least one central memory.
- the buffers are subdivided into a part for the control data and a part for the user data or payload, the user data being divided exclusively into the buffers.
- an additional central storage element is therefore dispensed with.
- control data comprise at least one status bit, from which the update status of the user data can be determined. This means that both the host processor and the communication controller can quickly determine whether the data is old or new, which in the latter case must be read out. This bit is therefore set when writing data and reset when reading.
- control data each comprise a status bit from which a current access to the buffer can be ascertained. This prevents the host processor or the communication controller from accessing a buffer while the other is overwriting or reading out the data content.
- control data comprise a status bit from which the allocation or linkage of the part of the buffer assigned to the useful data can be determined. As a result, the host processor or the communication controller can recognize whether the part for the user data of a buffer is occupied or free.
- a preferred application of the invention is the use in a FlexRay controller.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic block diagram of a FlexRay controller (prior art)
- FIG. 2 shows a schematic representation of a communication structure according to the FlexRay protocol (prior art)
- FIG. 3 shows a schematic representation of a message (prior art)
- 4 shows a first embodiment of the invention with a central memory element
- FIG. 5 shows a second embodiment with a fixed allocation of buffers and identifiers
- FIG. 6 shows a third embodiment with only a partially fixed allocation.
- the FlexRay controller 1 shows a schematic block diagram of a FlexRay controller 1, which is connected to two bus lines 3, 3 'via two transceivers 2, 2', so that redundant communication is realized.
- the FlexRay controller 1 sends and receives data messages via the transceivers 2, 2 '. Switching between transmit and receive mode takes place by means of bus guardians 4, 4 'assigned to transceivers 2, 2'.
- the FlexRay controller 1 comprises a communication controller 5, which has various tasks. On the one hand, this compares the redundant data of the transceivers 2, 2 'for agreement. Furthermore, this extracts data content from received data messages or generates the data messages for data to be sent in accordance with the FlexRay protocol.
- the FlexRay controller 1 comprises a memory 6, which is composed of buffers 7, which are preferably designed as dual-ported RAM. Each message from a FlexRay controller 1, which in each case forms a network node, is assigned at least one unique identifier.
- the other port of the buffers 7 is connected to the actual host processor 8, which evaluates the received data content and generates or generates the data content to be sent by the FlexRay controller 1. edited.
- the host processor 8 can then be connected to actuators and / or sensors via data and / or control lines 9.
- the communication structure according to the FlexRay protocol is shown in simplified form in FIG. 2.
- the frame structure is such that the length of all frames A - C in the static part is the same size.
- the frames D1 - D4 are dynamic frames, the size of which can be different.
- Static means that frame A is always assigned to identifier ID 01. A time slot is thus assigned to it, in which it can send data, but does not have to.
- frames B and C for identifiers ID 02 and ID 03. All other control units to which no static frame is assigned can send their data in a dynamic frame.
- An arbitration procedure which differs from that of CAN, then takes place there, analogous to the procedure for CAN.
- the identifier ID 04 sends first, then ID 05 and then ID 06 and finally ID 09, the identifiers ID 07 and ID 08 having no data to be sent at this time.
- the illustration in FIG. 2 is highly schematic since, due to the so-called minisloting method, there must be a certain period of time between ID 06 and ID 09 in which certain minimum times are waited for whether the ID 07 or ID 08 is to be sent data want to send over the bus.
- the schematic structure of a data message is shown in FIG. 3.
- the data message is composed of a header HD, which also contains the identifier, the actual user data or payload PL, and a trailer TR, which contains, for example, CRC data.
- the maximum payload per frame is limited to 254 bytes, with the planned next generation FlexRay controllers only being designed for a maximum payload of 32 bytes / frame.
- the known FlexRay controllers have a memory size for the buffers designed for the maximum payload, i.e. the next generation buffers only have a memory size of 32 bytes, although the FlexRay specification would allow larger frames.
- the memory 6 comprises a number of buffers 7, a buffer 7 being permanently assigned to each identifier ID01-IDXX. Furthermore, the memory 6 comprises a central memory element 10, which is composed, for example, of a large number of dual-ported RAMs of different sizes. In the assigned to the identifiem Buffers are control data SD01 - SDXX.
- the memory size of the individual buffers 7 is preferably the same size and designed for the size of the control data SD01-SDXX, whereas the payloads PL of the identifier ID01-IDXX are stored in the memory element 10.
- the control data SD01-SDXX include, for example, an address, namely where the assigned payload is stored in the memory 10. Further control data can be, for example, status information about the degree of update, the current access and the determination of whether the communication controller 5 or the host processor 8 has registered the payload. Furthermore, information about the length of the payload can be stored in the control data SD01-SD XX, because although a communication controller can always extract the length information from the header when it is received, a reading host or a writing controller has no length information.
- the procedure is, for example, as follows: Communication controller 5 receives a data message and recognizes, for example, from the header which identifier ID the data message is assigned to and the size of the payload.
- the communication controller 5 searches the memory element 10 for a free memory space of a suitable size and writes the payload there. Accordingly, the address is written into the control data SD of the associated identifier and the status bit is set for the degree of update.
- an address or a memory area in the memory 10 can be permanently assigned to the identifiers of the static part, since their frame size is predetermined, so that the memory management could only extend to the identifiers of the dynamic part.
- the host processor 8 also reads the data accordingly. This first controls the associated buffer 7 of the desired identifier, detects whether it is new data and then reads out the payload from the memory element 10, its address in the control data was deposited.
- a memory area in the memory element 10 which is adapted to the payload is selected in each case.
- the memory element 10 is composed of DPRAMs of different sizes, for example 8, 16, 32 and 64 bytes
- a payload of 254 bytes can be divided, for example, into four 64 byte RAMs, the addresses of which are stored in the control data.
- the advantage of this embodiment is the great flexibility, but the known structure of the FlexRay controller is changed. In particular, the described FlexRay controller can be used to react flexibly to changed specifications, such as frame sizes.
- each identifier ID01 - IDXX is fixed a buffer 7 is assigned, the associated payload PL also being at least partially stored in the buffers 7.
- the memory 6 of a FlexRay controller comprises more buffers 7 that are used as identifier ID, ie there are unused buffers 7, which are designated here with XX01 - XX04. These unused buffers XX01 - XX04 are now used for dynamic memory management.
- the control data are structured as follows, for example:
- the communication switch 5 searches for a free buffer XX01 - XX04, the married bit of which is not set.
- the communication controller 5 then divides the payload, with part of the payload being stored in the buffer 7 assigned to the identifier and the remaining part in the free buffer.
- the payload PLXX is divided into the payload PL'XX and PU'XX, the latter being stored in the buffer XX04.
- the control data SDXX or SDXX04 of the two buffers 7 must then be changed accordingly.
- the update and married bit are set and the busy bit is reset after the process has been completed.
- the update bit recognizes that the data is new. Recognizes on the basis of the address at next_pointer this further that the payload was divided into at least two buffers. After the data has been read out, the update bit is reset, the busy bit set during reading being reset after the reading process.
- buffer XX04 After a cycle, the memory in buffer XX04 is then deleted and the married bit is reset so that buffer XX04 is again available for dynamic memory management. Since the payload for the identifiers is fixed in the static part, the control data can be omitted for their assigned buffers if their buffers for the payload are sufficiently large. Otherwise, these buffers are preferably assigned another buffer for the chaining in order to simplify memory management. In addition, it should be noted that the chaining is not limited to two buffers, but if necessary three or even more buffers can be linked to one another, the address of the next buffer in the chain then being in each case next_pointer.
- control data is stored in the buffer must be specified in advance so that its meaning is clear when reading or writing.
- the addressing process for the host processor or the communication controller can be simplified by suitably placing the next pointer. This is to be explained in more detail using a few examples, where it is assumed that the control data are a total of two bytes long and the next_pointer is twelve bits long. It should also be noted that the physical addresses of the buffers are numbered consecutively. Assuming further that the buffer size is 16 bytes, the physical addresses of the first buffer are from 0 to 15, the second buffer from 16 to 31, the third buffer from 32 to 47 and so on. By a suitable placement of the next pointer and masking of the status bits, a desired address can then be read directly from the control data without shift operations.
- a status bit is placed on the first bit of the control data, followed by the twelve bits of the next_pointer and then the remaining status bits. Since only every second byte is to be addressed, the lowest bit of the address is always zero.
- the 16-bit control data are now routed to 16 AND gates, for example, a fixed zero in the status bits and a logical one in the next_pointer bits at the second input of each AND gate is applied. The status bits are thus masked and the address is at the output at the output of the AND gates. If, for example, only every 4, 8 or 16 byte is to be addressed, the next__pointer must only be placed one bit to the left in the control data.
- the first four bits of the control data would be the status bits and the last twelve bits the next_pointer, with the first four address bits for the controller by masking the Bits would be 0000.
- An address generated in this way would therefore allow every 16 bytes to be addressed without having to carry out shift operations in the controllers.
- FIG. 6 Another possible embodiment is shown in FIG. 6, the memory again consisting of a chain of buffers 7. All identifiers ID01 - ID03 of the static frame are assigned an identifier. If the buffer size is greater than / equal to the payload, there is no need for chaining and only the required status bits, such as update and busy, can be provided. No buffer is permanently assigned to the other identifiers of the dynamic part. Rather, the remaining free buffers are managed dynamically, the assignment of the identifiers ID04-IDXX to the buffers being stored in a table 11. If the communication controller 5 now receives a data message from one of the identifiers ID04-IDXX, the communication controller searches for a free buffer in the table and assigns this to the identifier with its payload.
